Anyone think Toney is lesser then Canelo in anyway?

    And I agree with this. I think Canelo is a shitty deck stacker of a man, but I give him his due as a fighter - he comes in at 100% and is ready to go all the way to win. When GGG landed a monster combo on him in their second fight he never thought for a second of quitting. Toney used to blow up like a dirigible between fights and struggled to maintain form. It aggravates me to no end the way people give him a pass for this.

    He showed up clinically obese for a couple fights and pissed some of the highest steroid results ever measured in boxing.

    I'm a bit biased, James is easily one of my favorite fighters. Canelo is damn good but Toney was better at most everything.
